Few mods have had such an impact with the online Half-Life gaming community as Day Of Defeat. Old favourites Counter-Strike and TFC spring to mind of course, but despite their avid following (CS in particular) they're getting a bit long in the tooth. Even Counter-Strike can now be modded with the Fusion pack weaponry addons, so it must be getting on a bit.

So, putting these beloved but slightly geriatric mods to one side for a moment, what's so great about the upstart World War Il-themed DoD? Well, this is one mod that it has been a real pleasure to watch. Starting from humble beginnings as did Counter-Strike, the first public releases of the class-based Day Of Defeat were fun but they didn't really grab you by the nuts, figuratively speaking. The maps were OK but not awe-inspiring, the character models and animation slightly wooden. The gameplay was almost run-of-the-mill deathmatch with Allied and Axis soldier skins. The whole mod just didn't quite gel. It was neat, but... not quite a star.

Later, as the development team beavered away at DoD 2.0, the plan all came together. The detail levels shot up, the mod developed an immersive and imposing atmosphere all of its own which began to rival the bestaround, and background noises became an intrinsic part of the game instead of something that just happened. Then voice support appeared and online server numbers improved so much that getting a good game was never a problem. Now Day Of Defeat was coming of age. We'd always thought that it was destined for great things and here was the proof. 'Sod Wolfenstein a few voices cried. 'We're off to play Day Of Defeat instead'.

Take note that Days of Defeat Source is 75% off right now, price: 2.50$. I have no interest for that game, but I figured that for the price of a double espresso it's hard to be disappointed.

To open it you will need the JACK editor.The file contains basic flag setup, and some assets that I’ve made that you are free to move around and make new maps from.

Now version 3.0 is upon us. New features include objectivebased gameplay, the ability to mix one-life-per-round and respawning teams, new spectator modes, more maps and yet more atmosphere (as if that's possible - the D-Day map is only missing scratch-and-sniff cordite and burning flesh smells to make it almost as harrowing as actually being there). It's truly impressive. There are of course other WWII mods but none can offer the sheer class of Day of Defeat and it's up to the likes of Return to Castle Wolfenstein (sort of) and the excellent Medal of Honor to offer it any real opposition. These, though, are full-priced games and you expect satisfaction for your money. DoD of course is free (install from our disc and even a download charge can't come back to haunt you) and in some ways offers an even better online experience than its expensive competitors. Ninety-nine per cent of mods aren't a commercial enterprise, but a labour of love, and DoD shows that sort of devotion by the bucketful. It's a top-class shooter and an absolute essential. Try it now!
